Analysis of the wave energy resource at the European Marine Energy Centre

摘要

It is now generally accepted that the depletion of oil and gas reserves together with climate change mean that a greater amount of our future energy supplies will need to come from renewable sources. The UK government has a target of producing 20% of the UK's electricity from renewable sources by 2020; including a target for marine renewable energy of 2 GW of installed capacity by the same date.
